Right about now, 3pm, you start to get a little grumpy and as I like to say, a little loopy. You’re feeling sluggish and you’re nowhere near as alert as you were 3 hours ago. You could reach for another cup of coffee or you could pop a piece of gum.

New research from Brain and Cognition show that chewing may increase your alertness by 10%. They think chewing increases blood flow to the brain making you snap out of your haze a little faster. You can achieve the same effect by chewing a number of things, but gum can satisfy your sweet tooth without making you pack on the pounds.

Eating healthy is great, but why don’t more people do it? It might have something to do with the fact that fresh food goes bad faster than its processed counterpart.

But with these tips on how to organize your fridge and store fruits, vegetables and more, keeping your food fresh will be super easy!

1. Onions stored in pantyhose will last 8 months!
2. Swish your berries in one part white or apple cider vinegar and 10 parts water.
3. Keep your guacamole from going bad by spraying it with cooking spray.
4. Add butter to the exposed side of cheese to keep it from drying out.
5. Keep your potatoes from sprouting by storing them with apples.
6. Before covering a bowl of lettuce, place a paper towel on top to absorb the moisture.
7. Preserve fresh herbs by putting them in ice cube trays filled with olive oil.
8. Wrap the top of your banana bunches with plastic wrap.
9. Store food in mason jars instead of tupperwear. Better for the food and better for you!
10. Wrap lettuce, celery and broccoli stalks in aluminum foil before storing in the fridge.

1. Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?

I am from Lindenhurst, New York. My favorite hobbies include working out, dancing, shoe shopping and going to the beach! I am an instructor, trainer, Zumba instructor and dance teacher! I have been a dancer my whole life and it is a strong part of who I am.

2. How did you end up working at Lucille Roberts?

I ended up working at Lucille Roberts because I was a member there starting when I was in high school. When I started college going to the gym became less frequent. I gained some weight when I was dating someone who was a bad influence on my food choices & sleeping habits. I also didn’t dance as much as I had in high school and the freshman fifteen came to life!
